World Environment Day is celebrated annually on June 5, a special day for Lidl Cyprus for which the protection of the planet is part of its core strategy.
Specifically, Lidl Cyprus has:
● Withdrawn free single-use plastic bags, reducing annual plastic use by 45 tonnes and CO2 emissions by 40%
● Removed the option of purchasable single-use plastic bags, helping reduce plastic use by 7 tonnes
● Increased the energy efficiency rating in all of its properties
● Implemented an efficient waste management system (ISO 50001) in its facilities, stores, warehouses and central offices
● Committed to reducing plastic use by 20% in all own-label products by 2025
● Announced its aim of 100% recyclable packaging in own-label products by 2025
As part of the Schwarz Gruppe, Lidl Cyprus takes part in the REset Plastic programme, a holistic, international initiative aiming to tackle plastic use in a number of ways. This includes avoiding use altogether, redesigning plastic products, recycling, removal, and research.
Lidl Cyprus will continue contributing towards a more sustainable future, with the environment being a cornerstone of its strategy and model.
